EA Clarifies All Games Microtransaction Comment

Polygon has a follow-up from EA on recent comments that were widely taken to mean they were building microtransactions into all their games. They quote EA's Blake Jorgensen speaking today at a Wedbush Technology Conference in New York City. "I made a statement in the conference along the lines of 'We'll have micro-transactions in our games' and the community read that to mean all our games, and that's really not true," he said. "All of our mobile games will have micro-transactions in them, because almost all of them are going to a world where they are play for free." Technically, the quote at the time was: "We are building into all of our games the ability to pay for things along the way," but now the point is clarified.
